Picked up a value pack via Uber Eats as the weather didn’t motivate me to go for a drive.
Order: 2 Fish, chips, sausage and hotdog
Cost: $25.20
Fish was Warehou clean and smelt good and the size was good too. That was the best bits as the usual golden crunch of the batter was not there and the filet was noticeably chewy. If you’ve ever reheated FNC in the meecrowhavey the next day, the texture of everything doesn’t hit the spot, and that’s the experience I had here.
The chips were a bit floppy side and soft to the bite. They reminded me of the chips you can get from a bakery selling chicken, which was okay just not that typical Chinese Chip Standard 😒
The sausage and hotdog were true to form and delivered the expected experience. Good size and very tasty, light in the oil as well.
I tried to figure it out, but I’ve had chippy dinners from over the hill before, and they have arrived in a better state. Can only describe it as ‘Aueeee’

We used to live on Jackson Street, and would regularly dine here, it is easily some of the best Turkish in Wellington. Since we have moved cities we’ve made it a tradition to ensure we always grab a meal here every visit, it’s that good. The staff are so lovely, and the food is epic. If you’re in town, and craving Turkish, this is the place.

Best crumbed fish ever!!! Good portion, beautifully cooked and the thickest crumb. The fish was flavourful and juicy. Chips and hot dogs also great. Owners are really lovely and hard working ... great to support local. Can’t wait to try their Chinese menu 😀

Dropped in for the first time on Mother’s Day at lunchtime and they were pretty busy. Fortunately, we managed to get a table. There were probably only 3 to 4 staff so service was a little slow but not overly bad. They do have the usual Kiwi style breakfast and also the traditional style Vietnamese food and drinks. The Vietnamese coffee was great however it would be nice to serve with an extra side of hot water as the condensed milk might seem overly sweet for some. Food was tasty and generous portions which we ended up taking some home. There are 2 toilets available and I have to say that they are pretty clean. The only letdown were the flies. We are nearing winter and there were easily around 10 flies buzzing around, so I would expect summer to be much worse. This would be something that’s easily taken care of so would definitely be back for more meals.

Order: Fish, 1/2 Scoop of chips, Corn fritter and a sausage.
Cost: $21
The fish was of a good size and coated nicely with a crunchy batter for most of it. Some spots the batter was soft. The flesh was a little rubbery to the bite, so didn’t give off those ‘fresh feels’.
The chips were okay and better off in a chip butty, soft and pillowy right through.
Corn fritter was ‘gluggy’ due to a batter mix and not the mash potato that’s the way forward! Disappointing really.
The sausage was well, exactly as it looked lol.
In terms of value, I gotta say it’s not there. Yes for portion size, but a hard No on quality and taste.
